Safety, trust & environment
I will be sure to provide a safe, comfortable environment for every dog I take care of. I will also follow all owner instructions closely and stay aware of your dog’s needs and behavior.
Home
Information Wendy A. would like to know about your pet
It’s important to know about any medications they take, their daily routines (like feeding times, walks, and potty breaks), special habits or quirks, and what treats or foods they can (or can't) have. This helps keep them safe, happy, and feeling right at home while you're away.
A typical day
From fun games of fetch that turn into zoomie marathons, to car rides around town, your dog and I will have a blast together! We’ll also sneak in plenty of belly rubs and cuddle time on the couch.

Dogs are family, paws down!
Pet care experience
I have been a lifelong dog owner, with 35 years of hands-on experience in caring for dogs. I raised my daughters alongside our family dogs, teaching them the importance of compassion, responsibility, and consistency in pet care. I take pet ownership seriously—always dependable, attentive, and loving. For me, pets are family, and their well-being is a top priority.
Reviews
Wendy is an outstanding dog walker! Consistent, communicative, accommodating, flexible. I can’t say enough how much she has helped when I have shifting schedules. I can’t recommend enough.
Wendy great as usual
We were so happy we chose Wendy for dogsitting our 12 year old Poodle. She spent so much time with her day and night. We received several pictures each day. She even got our fussy pill taker to take all her pills each day. We could not tell that anyone had been here all week. Our house was in the same condition as we left it. We highly recommend you give her a try, but please don't need her when we do!
Wendy has been walking my puppy, Missy, three days a week for 30 minutes each time, and she’s been wonderful. Missy always comes back happy and relaxed after their walks. Missy is a diva and sometimes resists going out, but Wendy is always patient, kind, and understanding with her. I especially love the feedback and pictures Wendy shares after each walk—they give me a lot of comfort and peace knowing how Missy is doing. I’ve really appreciated the care and consistency she brings to every visit, and I hope to see her back in the spring.
